Waa..Give some review later

I have consulted Netgear regarding the CA issue. According to Netgear, we are currently connected to CA without knowing it. The modem will automatically connect to the best band /signal and assign to it. In the Diagnostics tab, you can see which frequency/band that you connected under Current Radio Band info. But you can only see only 1 band (Main band) in the info.

If you really keen to see which band that you connected (CA), there is 2 ways of doing it.
1. Connect your AC810s to PC using USB and check it with Telnet. (Google / Refer Netgear Forum)
2. Change to other modem that can manually lock the band. Eg : Huawei E5186-22a / B618

I tested several modem and the result show that different Category LTE capable modem does affect the speed.

AC810s (Cat11 & 3CA) is consider a good buy in case B8 can CA in the future.

Its happened to me once last week. Speed drop from 80mbps to <5mbps. Maybe doing too many speedtest with different device. Happen around 7~8pm like that.

But after reset the modem, the problem solved.

You are using Usb tethering / Wifi? Using any DNS?

M1 can operate with/without battery, can just plug in the usb type-c direct into wall plug. Make sure charger support Quick Charge 2.0. Using 24/7 and get consistent speed without overheat =)

Add little bit can buy B618 / M1 d lo...crazy price

B618 is around RM1100++ in taobao

Better spend on good antenna rather than unproven solution. Try google Poynting antenna or similar brand.
Only 1 time cost and u can use for a long time / different modem. And try get the MIMO type

p/s: Buy antenna is u got rather low signal / unstable connection.

The quoted price come with 2 unit LPDA-92 or single unit only? Bracket can DIY

What's your location?
I noticed that M1 signal reception is not as strong as those LTE router..going to buy antenna to boost the signal reception.

Btw, i'm noticed some performance drop compared to last time...now mostly stable at 50mbps

Is there any others solution for the throttled speed? REGEDIT & CMD seems not working for my case...TTL stuck at 64 still

Phone still manage to get high speed while my pc barely get 2mbps and the connection is unstable..Not heavy user also...barely reach 70gb per month...Digi throttled me for what...ZzZz

For netgear mifi, use at least Quick Charge 2.0 charger to power your mifi to avoid random restart.

Wow..set via At Command or just stock apps can set d?

u got contact info for the poynting antenna? My current noob antenna does boost the download speed significantly XD..tangan gatal leh

Complaint will improve meh? Same case with both of them..complaint and nothing happen..keep telling us that tower is under maintenance..berapa kali need maintenance lo..After maintenance, getting worst than before... <5mbps with high latency lo

The worst part is..CS told me that they have solved the issue and upgrade, after that can online with "usable" speed (5~10mbps)..before this was 40mbps minimum consistently..

And guess what...after few day,i can't online again..i called to complaint..another CS told me that nothing have been done to the tower and they still pending to upgrade the tower etc... For me, all those maintenance just an EXCUSE by Digi to layan those complaint.

Worst after sales service ever...but what to do, Digi the only option for me

After struggle with Digi for this past few month, Digi finally solved my issue.. Speed get back to 80mbps...During 8-12pm can get around 30~50mbps..not bad for wireless broadband.

But i plan to port out soon, as i need stable internet connection for my work and home usage. Digi have the best unlimited plan so far. Recommended for those who have better Digi coverage / tower.

Have some equipment to let go soon, eg M1, B525, yagi x2 Mimo and Panel Antenna. Hope u guys can utilize it more than i do.

Cheers

For me, M1 is better suit for those who travel a lot / mobile. Not suitable for home router.

The main drawback for M1 is the band selection/ current band indicator. That why i option for B525. But M1 build quality is good. Feel solid to hold. Battery last a lot longer than my wife ac790 / huawei mifi. FYI, M1 size is not small, consider big for portable wifi. Its like put a 1040mah power bank in your pocket.

For the reboot issue, just simply use it with QC2.0 charger and better USB type-C cable, which i did. No reboot occur after that as Netgear packaging come with normal non-QC charger.

BTW, 2CA is more than enough for current use as Malaysia 4g-LTE-A not that stable yet. Only some location benefit from Carrier Aggregation. Make sure to check your local tower/ band before buy LTE-A capable modem. For those who have good LTE-A in their area, go for it. It almost double the speed.

For your case,e5186 and ee60 speedtest done under the same scenario? Speed constant at 100mbps? Not sure about M1 in your area. Try borrow your friend Samsung S8 and see the result.

Judging from my experience, CPE tend to have better connection and speed.

Same placement? Check the signal strength for both device? BTW, nice speed u got there..more than average speed other people get. BTW, my M1 sold within minutes i post at garage sales. I just know that a lot of people looking for M1. ...now left B525 and some antenna..LOL
